Royal visit: Full report and pictures in today's Echo - watch the video here

Hundreds of people turned out to greet the future King and the Duchess of Cornwall as they toured south Essex.

The whistlestop tour of the county started at the High House Production Park in Purfleet before going to the Bell pub in Purleigh, near Maldon, then onto Westcliff’s Palace Theatre to watch a performance.

Delighted well-wishers shook the future monarch’s hand and two schoolchildren presented the pair with flowers.

If you don't like the Queen and country then i guess its not for you and you will never get it or don't want to get it, but many do have an interest, i think he is an alright chap.

It was great for the Palace Theatre to get the Royals, i know people dont like them but you can't take anything from the Palace for having them.

Alright Chap ! WTF ... Secret lobbying, spider letters to democratically elected politician's, receiving of our hard earned money when he gets benefit of Duchy lands (tax reduced by the way). OK that's just Charles, issues also with the rest of the royal mob as well. In this world of increased inequality why do subjects still admire this dysfunctional family. Go forth and wave your pathetic flags. Up the Republic.
